The Mill Commercial Reel (Gavin Blair & Phil Mitchell, 1991-1993)

A collection of commercials created by The Mill, the world's first all-digital post production facility, from 1991-1993. The Mill was founded by Ian Pearson (co-creator of ReBoot) and Chris Roff. The visual effects in these commercials were created by Gavin Blair and Phil Mitchell (also co-creators of ReBoot) while ReBoot was still in development.
This footage was transferred from D1 video tape and restored by the ReBoot ReWind crew: Jacob Weldon, Raquel Lin, Mark Westhaver & Bryan Baker.

These really are excellent. I miss how bright and colorful the early 90s were. For many years now, there have been shows and movies where you wish someone would turn on the light.

Still proud of that Tiger morph... so ludicrous!

Was that a Toyota MR2?

[@gavmungus824]

@@aenoymotors IIRC correctly I think it was. Badges removed of course, since it was an Esso ad not a car ad! :)

Seeing Cool for Cats on this is so surreal. Awesome stuff, man.
